Hey, anyone using System Access to go? How do you like it? Is it working well with your computer or are you having any problems with it? Do you know of any other free screen readers that I can download online that have the same features like System Access To Go. A friend told me about NVDA, but I don't know if that works well with my computer.

NVDA is pretty good, can get it from nvda-project.org .. ithas not worked at all with Internet Explorer, but I heard the latest version has huge improvements in the area, works better than any screen reader with FireFox. System Access is beautiful with MS Word 2007, better than the big screen readers.
I'd try both, if there are problems,report them, these two companies are trying to bring about a revolution, or at least a stir up, of the software market as far as AT is concerned, aide that effort.

NVDA should work fairly well with your machine. and you no need to have an internet to use it.
i agree with Bru regarding ms word 2007 with SAToGo, infact, i reckon, most if not all of the ms office 2007 product work very well with SAToGo, impressive considering jaws always crash with power point.
this two company should give the major screen readers a push on the bum considering how well they do and how keen they want to do it better in any expect.

INdeed. System Access To go is my preferred screen reader, way more easy to use than Jaws in my opinion.
Not a big NVDA fan, but to each his own.

I use NVDA and I also use system access to go and love it. I'm looking in to buying the system access product.
